AIMS Annual Conference

The American Institute for Maghrib Studies Annual Conference is our institutional signature event that brings together delegations of scholars from the US, Tunisia, Algeria, and Morocco, as well as individual scholars from Mauritania and Libya. The conference rotates each years between Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco. AIMS members who are interested in proposing a theme with resonance across North Africa are encouraged to submit a formal proposal in response to a call for conference proposals issued by AIMS annually. The selection committee will look favorably on applications that envision an interdisciplinary conference that incorporates both historical and contemporary perspectives. Up to USD20,000 will be made available to support this flagship event. AIMS conferences in Tunisia in Tunisia, include:
